You (and thinking of the other contributor as well) will find some
assorted and random links on microscopy image analysis in:

Note in particular the link 'publications' at the top and
'Watersheds_514'; those are links to Noel Bonnet's group at U. Riems.
In the publications you will find some downloadable PDFs that may
interest you.

'Watersheds_514' is a very good implementation of the watershed method
of image segmentation -- coded as a plugin for ImageJ.

We are using ImageJ. You will find ImageJ very useful, not only what is
offered by its core, but also the many plugins available from the
ImageJ website. As well as using other's plugins, we are developing our
own.

Myself, I use also the GIMP, XV, and ImageMagick (all freely
available), along with my own image processing and pattern recognition
API.

There are more random and unsorted links on active contours and
deformable templates at:

However, our work on segmentation (PhD of Christopher Hudy) is just
starting. My email address is in the links; if you want to keep in
touch, we will be issuing a significant report on segmentation methods
some time in the first half of next year; and we will be testing
methods and developing software from now on.
